The San Jose Sharks are a reeling hockey club having lost their past six games, and boasting a winless record during the month of December. The Sharks will be searching for that first victory tonight as they travel to Montreal to take on the Canadiens, who are one of the best teams in the East. Currently, Montreal leads the Atlantic Division with 43 points, but the Sharks might be catching the Canadiens at the right time as they have endured their own losing streak, having lost four of their past five games.
The Sharks will have their work cut out for them in this one as they face a Canadiens team that is sound in all phases of the game.
